Neither was King Kong in 1980.

What about being named after a building?

At no point did I mention volume, I implied education. I actually find just yelling louder to be worse than censorship, as all it does is increase the level of tension and push people towards extremes. Which helps no one.

I also didn’t mean to imply that we shouldn’t use band-aids at all, just that it’s a simple treatment, not a cure. Blocking certain speech and rhetoric can help to a degree… but not if it’s the only thing you do.

The problem with current strategies is that no one wants to go beyond that first step. Whether it’s censorship, or shouting.

Consoles don’t use memory, right?

Censorship is, at best, a band-aid. And they can always find ways around it. The best solution isn’t to block them from view temporarily, but to teach people to evaluate what they say with empathy and critical thinking.

That is, of course, difficult to accomplish. But then again, there’s no easy solutions, only easy excuses.

Its the definition according to the people who dont actually want socialism…

Everyone disagrees with what socialism means when you listen to the people who say “Socialism is the Soviets! Socialism is death panels! Socialism is when government bad!”

But if youre listening to those people you dont actually care what Socialism is, you just want an excuse to keep a broken system so you dont have to work at changing it.

Socialism is unions… but from the top down instead of just at the bottom trying to mitigate the problems brought about by capitalism. Socialism is people working together for the greater good instead of the greater profit. Socialism is people matter instead of money.

I suppose if that’s the opposite of what you want, youre right to oppose it.

We got weekends because of collective action, Unions are an example of collective action (when formed and utilized correctly).

As opposed to…

I mean, they acknowledge that it’s wrong, and they acknowledge that Bruce Wayne is not stable enough to have power by having him give the power to Lucius.

Not all scenes are so one-note that it only ever has one meaning or message.
